Don't overdo it- - - -breaking teeth off the flywheel isn't the desired result, we just want to make the crankshaft turn. If things get stiff, roll the engine back the other way and keep rocking it back and forth until you get a full turn. It might be a good idea to pull the valve cover and soak the valve stems at the same time you oil the cylinders. Good luck!
